Dotty Dripple Comics #21

Harvey Comics' "America's Laugh-a-Second Family" is in fine chaotic form in this December 1951 issue, as the cover by Buford Tune captures a frantic fellow sprinting across the yard, butterfly net in hand, in hot pursuit of a winged fish that has apparently escaped — much to the exasperated amusement of two women watching nearby, while a spotted dog cheerfully joins the chase. It's a perfectly silly suburban snapshot that promises the warm, gag-driven humor Dotty Dripple Comics delivered issue after issue, with Li'l Taffy along for the fun as well.
